THIRD DAY.
Rain Gives Place to sunshine and Over
1000 People visit the Grounds-The
baces Close and Exciting

IRON Thursdays Daily
The third day OF the State fair was high
ly successful and the managers are in eX-
cellent spirits. Yesterday opened in a
discOuraGing manner u light rain falling
before o'clock aud the gloomy prospect
Undoubtedly deferred many from coming
from a distance, who would naturally
come on the early trains, but toward noon
the skies cleared, the sun shone
warmly, afTording just the kind Of
weather in which drivers of fast
horses delight. and more than 1000 people
visited the grounds during the day One
Of the most gratifying features Of the
fair Is that everyone appears satisfied
that he has obtained the worth of his
money, every department being filed to
repletion with frst-class exhibits. This
is to be accounted for by the fact that eX-
hibitors have learned that no inferior ar.
tcie OF manufacture or scrubby animal
can win premium at the State fair. 1t
TOOK some time for certain ones to learn
this fact amid considerable grumbling,
but the standard Of the exhibition has
been raised in this way and Low the mum
| Der OF EXHIBITS was never larger
II have not been able to see half of the
| things exhibited" was the frequent eX-
clamatlOn he3ru as the people were leaV-
ing the grounds last evening, and such is
the fact. None can visit the fair this
| year and see all the exhibits inside of two
| days, and one must 20 on the grounds early
and come away late at that. Another in
teresting thing noticed yesterday was the
general surprise at the large attendance
so soon after the rain ceased, and it j. not
! too much to say that if the weather had
! been favorable IN the early morning the
attendance would have been as large as
| 10000 The grand stand was we'll flied and
every point OF exhibit was thrOnged. The
day. programme was a superldtive sue

one of the most attractive features of The
exhibition SO far and it WAS pronounced

exhibits are elsewhere described under
the appropriate heads The races in the
afternoon were unusually full and many
